Objectivity – it is the absolute bedrock of science. There is no notion, idea, hypothesis, concept, principle, axiom, maxim, theory, or law more fundamental to science than objectivity. In fact, in the absence of objectivity, science does not exist. Call it what you want, but it ain’t science.

So what happens when scientists in general lose their objectivity? They become anything but scientists – beach bums, flower children, Birkenstock-wearing granola munchers, bearded recluses in self-imposed exile from the outside world. A sad thing indeed.

This article is like the proverbial Monday morning quarterback. How timely! What if the 'scientists' hunch about global warming was correct? Now we think we know...

Money is wasted every day on bogus research and propoganda, that's not science, it's business - that's what late night TV is all about! Science is big business - bogus science just makes money faster. I'm not saying it's right, but it sure seems that way.

Anytime a political figure makes any claim with regard to science (discovery or otherwise) my BS alarm goes off. They always have a motive - and it's never the public's best interest...

Either way, I don't like the article - and think it's way to easy to look back and say they were wrong; no one would know how wrong if they hadn't performed the studies. As far as the liars at some donkey college in the UK, hopefully they have tightened up on their ethics since they got called out.
